M104 (test for longer telescope)

• mount: EM-200B modified with MTS-3SDI+

• autoguiding: Off-axis guide with Superstar (Starlight Xpress) guided usnig PHD guiding.

• Telescope / Lens: TOA-130S

• camera: EOS 60Da

• exposure: ISO 800, 6 x 5 [min]

• image processing: 6 images are stacked and filtered with "Registax", and tuned with Photoshop CS6

 

This image is a test image of "Sombrero nebula" (M104) taken at my home as well.

 

The light intensity is much less than that of the M42, and so the detailed part is contaminated with background of the city light.

Next time, I will try to go to hills or mountains to get a darker surroundings. :)
